Activating PIK3CA mutations in adipose-derived stem cells drive mutant-like phenotypes of wild-type cells in macrodactyly
1 Jul 2025
Abstract excerpt
Macrodactyly is a congenital overgrowth disorder characterized by pathological adipose proliferation due to PIK3CA mutations in adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs). Due to the somatic mosaicism, the affected tissues comprise a mixture of mutant and wild-type cells. However, how PIK3CA mutated ADSCs influence adjacent wild-type cells in macrodactyly remains poorly understood. In this study, we utilized coculture...
